Lo­ca­tion, Lo­ca­tion, Lo­ca­tion

By Jo Pugh ENGLISH ac­tor Josh Tay­lor, who has played roles in films such as Mac­beth and Richard III, is cur­rently film­ing on lo­ca­tion at Cala Mo­raig near Ben­i­tachell.

The new screen­play, El Ex­tran­jero (The For­eigner), is a Spanish film about a refugee.

It tells the story of a young English­man who be­comes dis­ori­ented and loses his boat while out snorkelling.

Cur­rents drag him away from his div­ing lo­ca­tion, and he even­tu­ally ends up in a dif­fer­ent coun­try.

The film aims to raise a moral de­bate about im­mi­gra­tion.

As well as Tay­lor's star­ring role, Manolo Solo, a Spanish Goya win­ner (Spanish Os­car equiv­a­lent) and re­cip­i­ent of two best sup­port­ing ac­tor awards, and Sevilla ac­tress Ta­mara Arias are on the cast list.

The scenic beauty of Cala Mo­raig met the per­fect con­di­tions for the scene re­quired, but due to ac­cess dif­fi­cul­ties, the film set had to be trans­ported to the beach by boat.
